   I’ve never really understood why anyone would post to their blog from email. If you’re at a computer you can login to WordPress or use a software application. If you’re mobile there’s WPhone.

     Some people might not have access to their blog admin from a some locations, but might have access to email.

       @Michael More than email it’s about convenience, if you are writing a email and suddenly got a post idea, you don’t have to leave the email interface to write the post.

       Publishing posts from public computers could be problematic due to security reasons of your admin panel,so i think in all those cases where you admin panel security problem persists, its really very advantageous to publish posts right from your yahoo mail instead of posting from your blog admin panel.

   I don’t use yahoo! mail anymore since gmail was around. And if I still do, I don’t get the point of composing and publishing blog posts from inside Yahoo! mail instead of your dashboard in WordPress.

     @duets this is not about a debate about email services, this application allows you to drag your email and create a post, think of the amount of time users would save while they compose posts, half of the work is done with a drag and drop.

     Agreed that the application is still in it’s infancy, think about the huge amount of time you would save sharing and uploading pictures you receive through email, I am a gmail user too and would surely want it to be in gmail.

   If you are interested in posting via e-mail to a self-hosted (wordpress.org) blog, check out the postie plugin:

   I agree that Yahoo should think about WordPress self-hosted blogs too. Anyways, this is a great guide

   I can’t see any sort of practical application. Why would I give up the powerful WP dashboard for this neutered app? I can surely cut & paste an email’s text into another Firefox tab where tinyMCE is running.

     Oh yeah, I’m self-hosted and exclusively use categories not tags.
